A thermocouple of resistance 1.6  Ω1.6\,\,\mathrm{\Omega } is connected in series with a galvanometer of 8  Ω8\,\,\mathrm{\Omega } resistance. The thermocouple develops an e.e..m.f. of 10  μV10\,\,\mu V per degree temperature difference between two junctions. When one junction is kept at 0  0C0\,{\,^0}\mathrm{C} and the other in a molten metal, the galvanometer reads 8  millivolt8\,\,millivolt. The temperature of molten metal, when ee.m.f. varies linearly with temperature difference, will be
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
960  0C960\,{\,^0}\mathrm{C}
Option A (960  0C960\,{\,^0}\mathrm{C}) is correct because it is calculated by equating the current through the galvanometer to the current produced by the thermocouple's emf, considering the total resistance of the circuit.
